Scripting / Beginners Guide to Coding Squirrel for Attract Mode!

« Last post by sickle on Today at 01:27:50 PM »

about a year ago, i started learning to code, with the end goal of rebuilding the turbografx mini GUI as an Attract Mode layout. it took me about 2 weeks to learn enough to feel confident enough to start, and I (Basically) finished the layout within that month (May 2020). this was my first experience coding, so I was starting from scratch.

check out that layout here: http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=3397.0

any of you who have tried to learn, or remember starting to code in squirrel know how little info there is about this language out there.

I ended up using a mix of 2 or 3 resources, the attract mode recourse thing, and that IoT tech resource that people talk about.

during my time learning, I was taking notes, and I believe that this info could be useful to others starting out!

there might be some slightly incorrect info, but I think it's all good enough to teach the basics.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1urH08QJ4ZgeS2gyAyLDyNv39D0Wi-2Bv/view?usp=sharing

the useful info starts on page 5 I think.

« Last post by Yaron2019 on Today at 02:06:48 AM »

Updated to version 10.3.2 with focus on the Hyperspin Theme Mode layouts:
+ fixed shaders not being applied to snap when default theme is displayed in 'Hyperspin Theme Mode' layout
+ fixed default theme snap disappears when starting from it in a continuous navigation of the wheel
+ updated shaders settings code of all three Hyperspin Theme Mode based layouts to match that of At-The-Arcade Multi-Cab
+ new shaders folder structure and naming

Hope you are the proud owner of the games. and these are backup copies

>Add games to AM direct:
discussion started here
Problem is : the games do not have the same structure (the name of rpx-file is always different; within the .xml you found the name of rpx-file too).

so you can try to edit all files to this structure:
GameName\code\GameName.rpx

edit there the .xml files too to GameName.rpx

maybe it works. i do not know.

>add links to AM:
did you use board search? there exists different threads adding batch, shortcuts, links (.lnk) to AM:
Here. Section windows_games

You may want to ask the question on the advmame message boards: https://sourceforge.net/p/advancemame/discussion/313511

I don't think that Advmame has support for shaders. So it would not be possible.

windows screen effect
is it possible to put these options in this video on the advmame? I would like to activate these filters and see which one is better, and which one would look more like an arcade monitor on an LCD screen

Scripting / Re: Pos Positioning Module

I just added a nearest_neighbor function for relatively scaling bitmap images with their edges intact.

Code: [Select]

local digdug = fe.add_image("sprites.png", 0,0)
scale.nearest_neighbor(digdug,300,"width")
